    Step Command Remarks 
    4.  Enable command 
    authorization.  command authorization  Optional. 
    By default, command authorization 
    is disabled. The commands 
    available for a user only depend on 
    the user privilege level.  
    If command authorization is 
    enabled, a command is available 
    only if the user has the 
    commensurate user privilege level 
    and is authorized to use the 
    command by the AAA scheme. 
    5.
      Enable command 
    accounting.  command accounting  Optional. 
    By default, command accounting is 
    disabled. The accounting server 
    does not record the commands 
    executed by users. 
    Command accounting allows the 
    HWTACACS server to record all 
    commands executed by users, 
    regardless of command execution 
    results. This function helps control 
    and monitor user behaviors on the 
    device. If command accounting is 
    enabled and command 
    authorization is not enabled, every 
    executed command is recorded on 
    the HWTACACS server. If both 
    command accounting and 
    command authorization are 
    enabled, only the authorized and 
    executed commands are recorded 
    on the HWTACACS server.

    hwtacacs-scheme -name  
    [ local ] |  local | none  |  
    radius-scheme  
    radius-scheme-name  [ local ] } 
     
    10. Exit to system view:  
    quit   Optional. 
    By default, local authentication is 
    used. 
    For local authentication, configure 
    local user accounts.  
    For RADIUS or HWTACACS 
    authentication, configure the 
    RADIUS or HWTACACS scheme on 
    the device and configure 
    authentication settings (including the 
    username and password) on the 
    server.  
    For more information about AAA 
    configuration, see 
    Security 
    Configuration Guide . 
    11. Create a local user and 
    enter local user view.  local-user 
    user-name  By default, no local user exists.

    password   By default, no password is set. 
    13.
     Specifies a command level 
    of the local user.  authorization-attribute level 
    level Optional. 
    By default, the command level is 0.
     
    14.
     Specify terminal service for 
    the local user.  service-type
     terminal  By default, no service type is 
    specified. 
    15.
     Configure common settings 
    for console login.  See 
    Configuring common console 
    login settings ( optional).  Optional. 
     
    The next time you attempt to log in through the co
    nsole port, you must provide the configured login 
    username and password, as shown in  Figure 11.

    e authentication interface for console login 
     
     
    Configuring common console login settings (optional) 
    Some common settings configured for an AUX user interface take effect immediately and can interrupt 
    the console login session. To save you the trouble of repeated re-logins, use a login method different from 
    console login to log in to the device be fore you change console login settings.  
    After the configuration is complete, change the termin al settings on the configuration terminal and make 
    sure they are the same as the settings on the device. 
    To configure common settings for an AUX user interface: 
     
    Step Command Remarks 
    1.   Enter system view. 
    system-view  N/A 
    2.  Enable copyright information 
    display.  copyright-info
     enable  By default, copyright information 
    display is enabled.  
    						
    							 31 
    Step Command Remarks 
    3.  Enter AUX user interface 
    view.  user-interface aux
     first -number  
    [ last-number  ]  N/A 
    4.
      Configure the baud rate. 
    speed speed-value  By default, the transmission rate is 
    9600 bps. 
    5.
      Configure the parity check 
    mode.  parity { even
     | none  | odd  }  The default setting is 
    none, namely, 
    no parity check. 
    6.   Configure the number of stop 
    bits.  stopbits 
    { 1  |  1.5  | 2 }  The default is 1. 
    Stop bits indicate the end of a 
    character. The more the stop bits, the 
    slower the transmission. 
    7.
      Configure the number of 
    data bits in a character.  databits
     { 7  | 8  }  By default, the number of data bits in 
    each character is 8. 
    The setting depends on the character 
    coding type. For example, you can 
    set it to 7 if standard ASCII 
    characters are to be sent, and set it 
    to 8 if extended ASCII characters 
    are to be sent. 
    8.
      Define a shortcut key for 
    enabling a terminal session.  activation-key 
    character  By default, press 
    Enter to enable a 
    terminal session. 
    9.   Define a shortcut key for 
    terminating tasks.  escape-key
     { default | character  } By default, press  Ctrl+C to terminate 
    a task. 
    10.  Configure the flow control 
    mode.  flow-control 
    { hardware |  none | 
    software }   By default, the flow control mode is 
    none
    . 
    The device supports only the  none 
    mode. 
    11.  Specify the terminal display. 
    terminal type { ansi | vt100  } By default, the terminal display type 
    is ANSI. 
    The device supports two terminal 
    display types: ANSI and VT100. HP 
    recommends setting the display type 
    to VT100 for both the device and the 
    client. If the device and the client use 
    different display types or both use 
    the ANSI display type, when the 
    total number of characters of a 
    command line exceeds 80, the 
    screen display on the terminal might 
    be abnormal. For example, the 
    cursor might be displayed at a 
    wrong place. 
    12.
     Configure the user privilege 
    level for login users.  user privilege level 
    level  By default, the default command 
    level is 3 for AUX user interfaces. 
    13.
     Set the maximum number of 
    lines to be displayed on a 
    screen.  screen-length 
    screen-length By default, a screen displays 24 
    lines at most. 
    A value of 0 disables pausing 
    between screens of output.  
    						
    							 32 
    Step Command Remarks 
    14. Set the size of command 
    history buffer.  history-command max-size 
    value By default, the buffer saves 10 
    history commands at most. 
    15.
     Set the idle-timeout timer. 
    idle-timeout minutes [  seconds  ]   The default idle-timeout is 10 
    minutes. The system automatically 
    terminates the user’s connection if 
    there is no information interaction 
    between the device and the user 
    within the idle-timeout time. 
    Setting idle-timeout to 0 disables the 
    timer. 
     
    Logging in through Telnet 
    You can Telnet to the device through a VTY user interface for remote management, or use the device as 
    a Telnet client to Telnet to other devices, as shown in 
    Figure 12. 
    Figure 12  Telnet login 
     
     
    Table 13 shows the Telnet server and client configuration required for a successful Telnet login.

    Telnet client  Run the Telnet client program. 
    Obtain the IP address of the Layer 3 interface on the server. 
     
    To control Telnet access to the device working as 
    a Telnet server, configure authentication and user 
    privilege for Telnet users.  
    By default, password authentication applies to Telnet  login, but no login password is configured. To allow 
    Telnet access to the device after you enable the Telnet server, you must configure a password. 
    The following are authentication modes available for controlling Telnet logins: 
    •   None —Requires no authentication and is insecure. 
    •   Password —Requires a password for accessing the CLI. If your password was lost, log in to the 
    device through the console port to modify the password. 
    •   Scheme —Uses the AAA module to provide local or remote authentication. You must provide a 
    username and password for accessing the CLI. If the password configured in the local user 
    database was lost, see  H P  Se rie s  E t h e rn e t  Swi tch es  Lo g i n  Password  Re c over y  M a nu a l  for password

    Configuring scheme authentication for Telnet login 
    Follow these guidelines when you configure scheme authentication for Telnet login:  
    •  To make the command authorization or command accounting function take effect, apply an 
    HWTACACS scheme to the intended ISP domain. This scheme must specify the IP address of the 
    authorization server and other authorization parameters.  
    •   If the local authentication scheme is used, use the  authorization-attribute level level command in 
    local user view to set the user privilege level on the device. 
    •   If a RADIUS or HWTACACS authentication scheme is used, set the user privilege level on the 
    RADIUS or HWTACACS server.  
    To configure scheme authentication for Telnet login: 
     
    Step Command Remarks 
    1.   Enter system view. 
    system-view  N/A 
    2.  Enable Telnet. 
    telnet server enable By default, the Telnet service is 
    disabled. 
    3.
      Enter one or multiple VTY user 
    interface views.  user-interface vty
     first -number  
    [ last-number  ]  N/A 
    4.
      Enable scheme authentication. 
    authentication-mode scheme   Whether local, RADIUS, or 
    HWTACACS authentication is 
    adopted depends on the 
    configured AAA scheme. 
    By default, local authentication is 
    adopted.  
    						
    							 36 
    Step Command Remarks 
    5.  Enable command authorization. command authorization  Optional. 
    By default, command authorization 
    is disabled. The commands 
    available for a user only depend on 
    the user privilege level.  
    If command authorization is 
    enabled, a command is available 
    only if the user has the 
    commensurate user privilege level 
    and is authorized to use the 
    command by the AAA scheme. 
    6.
      Enable command accounting. 
    command accounting  Optional. 
    By default, command accounting is 
    disabled. The accounting server 
    does not record the commands 
    executed by users. 
    Command accounting allows the 
    HWTACACS server to record all 
    executed commands that are 
    supported by the device, 
    regardless of the command 
    execution result. This function helps 
    control and monitor user behaviors 
    on the device. If command 
    accounting is enabled and 
    command authorization is not 
    enabled, every executed command 
    is recorded on the HWTACACS 
    server. If both command 
    accounting and command 
    authorization are enabled, only the 
    authorized and executed 
    commands are recorded on the 
    HWTACACS server.
